At the BIOM_Lab we use mycelium-based materials in combination with agricultural and industrial waste to explore pathways towards a circular economy. Biomaterials have the potential to reduce energy and materials’ extraction needs and are biodegradable at faster rates than conventional construction materials. Another aspect that we are exploring at the BIOM_Lab refers to different morphological panel configurations to enhance mycelium-based materials’ thermal performance by reducing heat gains through self-shaded surfaces. The images presented here show preliminary work on this line of research.
